Study of Traverse Grinding Process (1st Report) Accumulation Phenomenon and Size Generation Mechanism in Traverse Grinding

plicated processes on the wheel surf ace along the wheel width. In order to make these processes clear, the experimental analysis of traverse grinding was conducted by widely changing the speed ratio, Kv, the setting depth of wheel, ‡TMT, and the number of total steps, m, (the ratio of the wheel width over the traverse feed per one revolution of the workpiece). The following results were obtain...

Process Analysis and Design for Grinding Robot Tool Holders

A simple and effective solution to the robot grinding problem is introduced, which significantly reduces vibrations during grinding without additional actuators or active control. The objective is to determine the optimal compliance design for grinding robot tool holders. Specifically, the tool holder design should improve accuracy and productivity while protecting the robot arm from the large ...

securitization of mortality risks in life annuities

insurers have in the past few decades faced longevity risks - the risk that annuitants survive more than expected - and therefore need a new approach to manage this new risk. in this dissertation we survey methods that hedge longevity risks. these methods use securitization to manage risk, so using modern financial and insurance pricing models, especially wang transform and actuarial concepts, ...
